Again (Oikawa Tooru X Reader)

19) Worthy

The next couple of days at school were like you guys were celebrities, almost everyone was at the match, and they were showering you with compliments and your ego was eating it up.

When you sat down with Mira and Sasaki during lunch, they also felt pretty buttered up, "This is so awesome." Saki stretches her arms, and Mira nods, "Now I know what Oikawa feels like."

You sweatdrop, thinking about the constant praise he gets. "Pretty privilege," Teruhashi sighs as she puts her tray down.

You guys chuckle, but it is true, he's worshipped at Seijoh.

worship me instead tf 😔

"Who do you guys think is going to that all-Japan camp this year?" Kitomi suddenly speaks up, and the team all turns to you, "What? Me?!" You exclaim, "Uh, yeah. Or Sasaki, or both of you." Mira says, prompting Sasaki to freeze out of fear, "No way. It's you Y/N-san, definitely. Me? No."

"Don't sell yourself short Saki-chan, you're only a first-year and our main setter," Mira says, pointing to the girl with her spoon. The platinum blonde girl shakes her head, "I don't know, it's kinda scary to think about."

You agree, silently thinking about being a youth all-Japan volleyball player, and how bizarre it'd be. You stand up from your table, "I'll be right back."

As you walk out of the cafeteria you decide to head to the gym, hoping it's not occupied to maybe clear your mind and play a little. That meant that you were not going to be right back.

You had memorized the directions to the gym, thinking of how you will need to change the directions you've memorized when the girls gym is rebuilt.

Three lefts and a right...Here we are

You walk through the outside area, passing a vending machine, pausing, and then deciding to get apple juice.

At the same time, the first years on the boys volleyball team walk behind you and into the gym. You take your apple juice from the bottom of the machine, failing to notice them. You walk into the gym, inhaling deeply and then exhaling loudly.

"...L/N?" Kindaichi's voice comes from the right of you and you startle, "When did you get in here?" You look around to see all the other first years, "Just now." Kunimi spawns, you whip your head around at him, "Stop sneaking up on me, it's not funny." You scold him and he shrugs nonchalantly but you can feel his smile as he walks away.

"So why are you guys here?" Kindaichi points to their coach coming out of the locker room, "He said he had to tell the first years something important." He shrugs, "Alright then. Hopefully it's good news, I'll be going."

You say goodbye to the younger boys and get a head start to literature, a little bummed you didn't get to play.

"Y/N-chan," You feel someone tower over you from your left, you look up. "Yes, Tooru?" Then you look around the class, "Wait why are you here?"

"To tell you you're going to be chosen for the youth japan thing," He curls his lip and puts his hand on his hip, "And that I'm jealous." You blink at him for a moment.

"Uh okay," You mutter, continuing to write. He gains a tick mark on his head, "You don't believe me?"

Your eyes flicker up at him for a brief moment before going back down, "No." You continue to write as he sits in the chair in front of your desk, sitting on it backwards to face you.

"You know Tobio got invited to go," You hum in acknowledgment, your pen gliding across the paper swiftly in hopes of finishing before the bell rings to start your last period.
